I don't know where he lost his way, but we've been made to pay the price.
To bear the burden of his ... love.
A sickening feeling stirs deep inside each time he looks at me because I know what it means.
I have to follow the rules; be his good girl.
It's the only way to survive in this house.
Being in the dark never scared me, being alone was something I used to cherish until he began to use it against me.
Against us.
I just want to find the light now.
The place where I know his darkness can't reach.
A place where maybe everything will make sense one day, but for now, I have to be strong.
I won't fall down again.
I can't.
Not before I find my peace there.
I have to do it soon because I'm not sure how much more I can take.
